bummer
What a day. Super crazy busy at work-Tuesdays are my Mondays there because I work the looooong shift. We rolled about 5K out of there today on our side of the ledger though-commercial accounts are tracked separate from retail and we always smoke the counter guys. I notice how competitive men are even with stuff like this. Why get excited about it? We don’t get bonuses from it so whoopdee-doo who sells more shit. You guys never cease to leave me shaking my head at your reindeer games.
Aside from that, work was like that song “It’s Raining Men” for me today-I got to see my 8th grade crush twice today as well as Ringtone Guy (swoons!) RTG has stepped it up a notch on the flirtation scale and it left me with a serious case of vapors as well as acting rather goofy around him. He throws my game off big time, dammit. I don’t like that! He compared the endorphins you get from exercising to “really great sex” and I told him “I was married too long to remember what that’s like-ha ha ha”. Then he said that if he doesn’t get to the gym for a few days he gets all “pent up and cranky” to which I told him I knew alllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll about that feeling. Wink wink nudge nudge. Subtle, no? Then I got panicky and said “Well, gotta go BYE!” and hightailed it to my car. He followed me and we talked a little more-I found out he has 2 grown sons and has had a vasectomy. Was that his way of saying “We can fuck like bunnies and you’ll never have to worry about getting knocked up!”? To me it says “I don’t have to use protection so I have a scorching case of herpes.” Not sure what throwing that tidbit into the conversation was supposed to accomplish but it’s duly noted. So I left not knowing if he was any closer to asking me out or not. Blergh.
So the bummer part-I’m bummed that one of my favorite blogs is no more. Poof! Dunzo. The author must just be too happy to write any more and while I am really truly happy for him I will miss his commentary on things. I really wanted to live vicariously through this great new relationship he’s embarked on via his blog. But that may be slightly creepy given the nature of our friendship, I don’t know. Anywho, all the best to you my friend! You deserve it.
Tonight I was talking to Marie and she was bitching about how her Dad, visiting her from KY, was driving her apeshit. She said, “Now I know what you go through every day without having that buffer of 1000 miles between you and your Mom!” I love the idea of a parental buffer zone-where is my Mom’s Del Boca Vista, huh? Sadly, I can’t find a Seinfeld clip to accompany this one. Then I thought I would be in deep doodoo if I didn’t have my Mom around. She has helped me so much since the separation by taking care of Tank when I need her to, especially since I went back to work this spring. She’s definitely made up for all the passive-aggressive BS I’ve had to take from her.
I received a letter today from DSS saying that the case of neglect has been closed with no further action. I’m not sure what that means exactly or why they sent two different letters in separate envelopes saying the exact same thing but hey, bureaucracy in action. Smell the waste!!! Tomorrow morning I’m getting a big ol package from the Zoya folks-my first order getting the professional discount (half off, baby!). I can’t wait to see what I ordered since I did it in one of those fugue shopping states I enter when I get depressed.
No trackbacks yet.
